NAD HDM-2 - Video MDC Module

NAD HDM-2 - Video MDC Module

With NAD’s innovative Modular Design Construction, adding the latest cutting-edge technology can be as simple as a software upgrade or slipping a new hardware module into your stereo amplifier. The MDC HDM-2 is the latest MDC module from NAD and adds HDMI switching and audio capability to five of our most popular stereo amplifiers. Based on the latest 6GHz HDMI chip, the MDC HDM-2 includes full support for UHD (4K) video pass through to a video monitor.

While no substitute for a full-blown AVR in a home theatre setting, adding video capability to a stereo system is often the better solution for customers who prefer simplicity, but demand high performance.
With Consumer Electronic Control (CEC) and Audio Return Channel (ARC), the MDC HDM-2 and its host NAD amplifier, can be controlled by your TV’s remote control for seamless integration and ease-of-use.

The Complete Solution

Install the MDC HDM-2 to add even greater versatility to your NAD stereo component. From playing vinyl records, to streaming High Resolution MQA, to making games and TV shows sound their best, NAD amplifiers are the complete solution for modern entertainment at the highest level.

High-performance two-channel home theatre

NAD ingeniously designed their components to accommodate user-installed circuit boards, so you can keep up with changing technology or add capabilities to your existing NAD components. The MDC HDM-2 lets you add HDMI switching and audio capability to several of NAD's most popular stereo amplifiers with MDC (Modular Design Construction).

This add-on module uses the two-channel linear PCM soundtrack encoded on Blu-rays and DVDs for high-resolution two-channel home theatre sound. Full support for 4K pass-through to a compatible TV, along with ARC and CEC, provide seamless integration with existing components and remote controls.
